W - great point about the 180 for the baby - that is the bottom line - well said........and John, you&#39;re right - no way to confirm a &quot;180&quot; in the heart (unless it is from death to life - which is actually a spiritual version of W&#39;s point).<br /><br />I had watched the film because it was recommended by John Piper and a few other pastors I like. I like Comfort&#39;s passion and his ability to help people see a very common and frustrating contradiction in the pro-choice position. But I didn&#39;t like the 180 gimmick. It doesn&#39;t appear to be indicative of what is really happening.Howie Espenshiedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06601653744890155910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5223562369301235137.post-16252336555010434382012-02-07T20:55:46.047-08:002012-02-07T20:55:46.047-08:00Good read.

Even those that come to Christ (the greatest of all &#39;180&#39;s) at times feel the doubt or pressure from the &#39;other side&#39; that can, if not reaffirmed through faith, lose hope that they have had a true 180. With that being said, it&#39;s never true to know (besides the person themselves) in any situation if a true 180 has occurred. Also, Comfort&#39;s way of presenting the Gospel is definitely different from maybe the way I do it, but it seems to be genuine and bold. Something greatly lacking in the church today. He may only reach certain people with his presentation, but it&#39;s the spirit who draws them in the first place. I hope to gain boldness in that area like I see some of these modern day evangelist exude. Good read!John C.

Timely conservation given...OK Howie, I&#39;ll bite<br /><br />Timely conservation given the fact that Mitt Romney did a 180 on abortion when he was 58 yo and thinking through the stem cell issue.<br /><br />I heard a stat the other day that Planned Parenthood performs 10,000 abortions for every 1,000 adoptions. Is this really what these women are choosing ? Perhaps they need an interview with Comfort, or view &quot; Silent Scream&quot; or have someone explain the many women who regret having abortions ?<br /><br />We can parse the question of a 180 or adjustment, but from the baby&#39;s perspective, it&#39;s a TRUE 180 ! You&#39;re either pregnant or not; Dead or Alive !<br /><br />My .02<br /><br />WEric Luskhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01119984836076896635noreply@blogger.com
